Chapter 420 Breeding
In this way, it would be unreasonable for them to use excuses not to collect wages.
Regardless of time, hard work will be rewarded, and this is a truth that will never change.
At that time, they can pay more wages to their families, which will solve the environmental problems in their families.
Zhao Lizheng didn't know about Mo Jiuye's arrangements. After he calmed down, the first thing he thought of was that the Mo family raised so many poultry and livestock, so they must hire people like they did for farming.
"Old Nine, you see, there are quite a few people in our village. It's better for you to raise so many animals than to hire people you don't know, right?"
This was said directly enough, without any intention of beating around the bush.
Arrangements have already been made for these poultry and livestock, so Mo Jiuye naturally cannot agree to Zhao Lizheng's request.
"Uncle Zhao, we've found a suitable candidate for breeding."
After a pause, Mo Jiuye looked at the villagers and said loudly, "But don't be discouraged, my wife and I have already discussed it. These livestock at home will give birth soon, and we can sell them at a low price then.
If you want to raise cows, you can come to my house and buy them. We can also provide the technology to raise dairy cows."
After hearing Mo Jiuye's refusal, the villagers were somewhat disappointed, but they were soon attracted by what he said next.
Especially when Mo Jiuye said the word "cow", it was a very new term for them.
Zhao Lizheng asked questions on behalf of everyone.
"Laojiu, is this the dairy cow you are talking about?" he asked, pointing at the black and white cow.
Mo Jiuye sent Liang Hao and others to take the poultry and livestock to make arrangements first, while he stayed here to patiently explain to everyone.
"This is what Uncle Zhao is talking about, the dairy cow..."
He told everyone what he knew about the cows.
Although the villagers had never heard of cows, they were familiar with milk.
Originally, the Cui family raised a cow. After giving birth, they would take the excess milk to the city and sell it to wealthy families at a high price in exchange for money.
However, the yellow cow raised by the Cui family does not produce much milk. Even if there is any excess, it is only a little bit, which is very precious.
But Mo Jiuye just said that this kind of cattle, called dairy cows, can produce dozens of kilograms of milk every day if raised properly. This number simply refreshed his cognition.
If this cow can really produce that much milk, even if it is a little more expensive, you should still be able to save enough money to buy one and raise it.
Zhao Lizheng has this idea, and it’s okay for other villagers to think so.
Everyone came forward and surrounded Mo Jiuye.
"Old Nine, are you telling the truth?"
"Laojiu, how much is a dairy calf? I'll buy one from you after I sell the grain this autumn."
"Old Nine, you didn't lie to us, did you?"
Mo Jiuye knew that these villagers all wanted to earn more money.
"Everyone, rest assured, I mean what I say. The price of the calves is absolutely fair. In addition, if you want to raise pigs and sheep, you can also buy them from me after they are bred."
That’s all I have to say. Anyway, the breeding matter has been decided and Liang Hao and his family will be responsible for it, and it will never be changed.
As for these villagers, if they want to make money, they can start with raising a small amount of fish. As long as they take good care of the fish and don't let them die, they will definitely make money.
The villagers were all honest and simple people. After hearing what Mo Jiuye said, no one wanted to force him.
If you change your thinking, instead of working for others to make money, it is better to learn to raise fish yourself, so the profit may be even higher.
But they still have to find a way to raise the capital. After all, the prices of livestock such as cattle and sheep are very high. Otherwise, they would have raised them long ago.
"Since Lao Jiu has said so much, let's try to find ways to raise money during this period. Then we can follow the Mo family and raise a cow."
With just one word, Zhao Lizheng immediately shut up the villagers who wanted to say something. Then he waved his hand and asked everyone to disperse.
Mo Jiuye went out and brought back so many poultry and livestock, so he had to explain a lot, but he was already used to doing such things and solved it without any pressure.
The cattle and sheep were taken directly to the pasture, where fences had been installed in advance around the pasture.
The sheepdogs prepared in advance have been guarding there early. Now that the cattle and sheep are put in, they are all well-behaved and no one wants to escape.
The family members hired by Tao Ran only need to be responsible for feeding and cleaning up the feces on a daily basis.
The pigpen was also built by He Zhiran in the style of a modern farm, with all the necessary ventilation and drainage facilities.
Chicken farms spread from the foot of the mountain to the hillside.
This is also the breeding style that He Zhiran referred to in his previous life, when free-range chickens were very popular.
The so-called free-range chickens are raised in a free-range manner, and the chickens can find food on their own within a fixed range.
When choosing a site, He Zhiran discovered that there were many earthworms in that area, and the earthworms reproduced quickly, so there was no problem in providing a snack for the chickens.
It is said that the meat of chickens that often catch insects to eat is not loose, and the same is true for the eggs they lay. The yolks are much darker than those of ordinary eggs and taste particularly fragrant.
Both ducks and geese like places with water sources, so the farm is built near a small river.
This small ditch was discovered when they bought the wasteland. When the officials were measuring, they originally planned to remove the area of the small ditch, but He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye refused. They bought it together with the wasteland with the purpose of raising ducks and geese in the future.
The farm built by the Mo family is very large. Even though so many poultry and livestock were brought back today, it still looks empty.
Mo Jiuye planned to deal with these matters quickly before his wife gave birth, so that he could accompany his wife with peace of mind in the future.
Therefore, Mo Jiuye led his men into the city for three consecutive days, and every day they transported poultry and livestock back home in the same way.
After several days of hard work, the poultry and livestock in the farm finally reached a certain scale and temporarily reached their ideal breeding number.
At the same time, Mo Jiuye also invited Tao Ran and his family members to work here according to the original plan.
When they heard that it was a job and they would work in exchange for due compensation, Tao Ran and the others no longer remained reserved.
After five days, Mo Jiuye finally arranged everything about the farm.
During these five days, the fifth and sixth brothers really accomplished something big in the mountains.
Gunpowder was finally developed successfully, and the fifth brother also followed the method given by He Zhiran and put the gunpowder into a bamboo tube. After igniting it, he threw it far away and the effect of the explosion was comparable to what was expected.
It was still an afternoon. He Zhiran and Mrs. He were sitting under the grape trellis in the courtyard to enjoy the cool air when they heard a few explosions again.
But this explosion was completely different from the last time.
